CMOS pixel sensor development: a fast read-out architecture with integrated zero suppression
CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) have demonstrated their strong potential for tracking devices, particularly for flavour tagging. They are foreseen to equip several vertex detectors and beam telescopes. Most applications require high read-out speed, which imposes sensors to feature digital output with integrated zero suppression. The most recent development of MAPS at IPHC and IRFU a...
متن کاملMicroPattern Gas Detectors with pixel read-out
MicroPattern Gas Detectors are position-sensitive proportional counters whose sense electrodes are constructed using microelectronics, thin-film or advanced PCB techniques. The feature size attainable using these methods is of the order of a few microns and the detectors show excellent spatial resolution and fast charge collection. The real challenge with this class of detectors is the design o...
متن کاملDifferential read-out architecture for CMOS ISFET microsystems
The operation of a pH (Hþ ion concentration) sensitive ion-sensitive field-effect transistor (ISFET) microsystem with a sensitivity of 40– 45 mV=pH is demonstrated. This system has two identical ISFETs as the inputs to a pair of ISFET operational transconductance amplifiers (IOTAs) arranged in a novel differential architecture. The IOTAs have different sized p-MOSFET load transistors that enabl...
متن کاملCMOS Active Pixel Image Sensor for Highly Integrated Imaging Systems
A new CMOS-based image sensor that is intrinsically compatible with onchip CMOS circuitry is reported. The new CMOS active pixel image sensor achieves low noise, high sensitivity, X-Y addressability, and has simple timing requirements. The image sensor was fabricated using a 2 pm p-well CMOS process, and consists of a 128 x 128 array of 40 pm x 40 pm pixels. The CMOS image sensor technology ena...
متن کاملCMOS image sensor with pseudorandom pixel Placement
The picture element (pixel) in conventional image sensors are placed in the form of a lattice for ease of implementation. Lattice placement of pixels intrinsically has directional singularity on the clarity of image representation, and the clarity is significantly dependent on the directions of the objects in the image. For example, horizontal lines are perfectly represented, while slanted line...
